Side Effects of Shortening: Weight, Flex, Loft, and Lie
– Age and Condition: Older clubs, particularly those showing signs of wear and tear, might not endure the process as efficiently as newer ones.
– Shaft Material: While both steel and graphite shafts can be shortened, graphite demands more precision due to its composite nature.
– Club Type: Some clubs, like putters or specialized wedges, might not benefit from shortening or could lose their effectiveness.
